Fit for purpose security solutions

In a world of evolving threats from crime and terrorism, we bring peace of mind to clients with innovative and balanced security strategies combined with wide-ranging solutions to safeguard people, property, businesses, industry and organisations.

Our approach is to develop and create an integrated security strategy which combines planning, technology and management, along with physical, technical and procedural solutions, considering current and future security requirements. Criminals and terrorists constantly seek new ways to penetrate security defences, that’s why we design flexibility into our security solutions to ensure they can be adapted as new threats emerge and are identified.

Security is subject to a glut of government and industry standards, police recommendations and planning requirements. At Aldermans, we combine our knowledge of these along with our insight into the workings if criminal behaviour, and our analysis of local crime patterns, to which we apply our technical expertise to the optimisation of our clients’ budgets for security provision. By working closely with specialist security engineers and architects, we deliver fit-for-purpose security solutions that aim to blend with the architecture and support the function of the building.

Technical Security Solutions for Improved Security

Our technical security solutions include, among other things, video surveillance, access control, intrusion detection and communications systems, prohibited object and substance detection equipment, real-time location systems, emergency notification devices and perimeter protection design. We work in close partnership with multi-discipline design teams to ensure that security systems are integrated with a project’s building systems, such as public address, lighting, vertical transportation, visitor management along with fire and life safety systems. In addition to system design, we support our clients through the tender and construction process, conduct on-site compliance reviews and participate in final system testing and commissioning.

Aldermans Security Risk Assessment - ISO 31000

The ISO 31000 Risk Management Framework is an international standard that provides us as security consultants, guidelines and principles for risk management from the International Organisation for Standardisation. It seeks to assist us in taking a methodical approach to risk management by doing three key things:

identify risks;
evaluate the probability of an event tied to an identified risk occurring; and
determine the severity of the problems caused by the event occurring.

As such, this standardisation does not seek to eliminate risks, because the total removal of all risks is impossible. Instead, it is meant to help us identify the risks and establish a strategy for mitigating or reducing them.

What are the Benefits and challenges the ISO 31000 risk management framework

There are several benefits associated with adopting the standard, including the following:

Proven effectiveness Because ISO 31000 is an internationally recognised standard, it is used by countless organisations. This means that methodology has been thoroughly tested and proved to be effective.
Address risks in a standardised method When we implement this standard, it acts as a template that assists us identify key drivers of risk. It establishes risk criteria and risk treatments in a standardised way.
Increase the organisation's profitability When a client mitigates unnecessary risks, it also reduces the potential for financial damage stemming from events tied to that risk.
Utilise what is already in place ISO 31000 is just one of many ISO standards. The various standards are designed to work together, which means that clients may be able to incorporate the work that they have already done into their ISO 31000 strategy.
It can drive a business or private client to be more pre-emptive A good ISO 31000 implementation can help a client shift from being reactive to taking a more proactive approach at risk mitigation.
